The other day a added some more rocks to my box turtle's cage. Today I put some food next to the rocks, and she sniffed it like she was going to eat it, but instead she turned around and ate to rock! I this okay? I looked it up online, and it said "Turtles may swallow coarse soils such as sand for the same reasons they ingest small stones, i.e., for grinding tough foods, for controlling internal parasites, and as a source of minerals." Should I change something in her diet? Thank you in advance!
